<span>We are given the initial amount of 1 million carbon-14 atoms and the final amount which is 1/16 of the current atmospheric 14C levels. Also, the half life of carbon is </span>5,750 years. WE can use the decay formula
Aₓ = A₀e^-(ln2/t1/2)t
1,000,000(1/16) = (1,000,000)e^-(ln2/5750)t
t = 23,000 years
In order to determine the increase in boiling point of a solvent due to the presence of a solute, we use the formula:
ΔT = Kb * m * i
Here, Kb is a property of the solvent, so remains constant regardless of the solute. Moreover, because the concentration m has been fixed, this will also not be considered. In order to determine which solute will have the greatest effect, we must check i, the van't Hoff factor.
Simply stated, i is the number of ions that a substance produces when dissolved. Therefore, the solute producing the most ions will be the one causing the greatest change in boiling point temperature.
The solid water begins to change into liquid water when the ice molecules<span> start to move around. Another way to say that a substance changes from the solid state to the liquid state is to say it </span>melts<span>. Te </span>ice<span> continues to </span>melt<span> as more </span>ice molecules<span> get enough energy to move around.</span>
Answer:
SiO2(s) + 3C(s) ------> SiC(s) + 2CO(g)
Explanation:
The formula for silicon oxide is SiO2 and carbon is C. silicon carbide is SiC
and carbon monoxide is CO.
An arrow is always used to separate the reactants (left) and products (right).
A balanced equation must contain equal number of atoms in each side of the equation.
For example in the equation above, there are 1 atom of silicon appears on each side; 2 atoms of oxygen and three atoms of carbon.
